The project-based learning model via generative artificial intelligence, or PjBL model via Gen-AI, is a research tool that was initiated based on the concept of project-based learning management focusing mainly on self-directed learning, in which learners are able to learn and practice through the projects they are interested in as to their…

Community colleges, or 2-year associate-degree granting institutions, tend to enroll large numbers of students deemed misprepared for college-level coursework. Such students may also not be as likely to seek help, a self-regulated activity that is challenging and fraught with social stigma. A key component of active learning and the help-seeking…

This study aims to develop an integrated Project-Based Learning (PBL) model based on Values, Attitudes, Skills, and Knowledge (VASK), specifically designed for small-sized schools and mixed-grade classrooms. Employing a phenomenological study approach with a mixed-methods data structure, the research explores two key questions: What are effective…

Technology education aims to enhance students' technological literacy. Strengthening students' technological literacy through deliberations on technology can promote their engagement as citizens and encourage them to consider socio-scientific and sustainability issues related to technology in society. However, students tend to regard technology as…

Computational thinking is an important skill applicable to multiple disciplines and can be difficult to teach due to the stress and frustration novice learners feel from cognitively challenging learning activities. While existing theories like Zone of Proximal Development, Flow Theory, and Zone of Proximal Flow suggest that an ideal mode of…

This quasi-experimental study investigates the effectiveness of project-based learning (PjBL) and its integrated science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) variant (PjBL-STEM) in enhancing scientific creativity among high school students. Conducted in an Indonesian senior high school, 69 tenth-grade students were assigned to an…

In the context of online and distance learning, active student engagement in online synchronous tutorials is important for students' development; yet it can be challenging to achieve. The research reported in this paper explored why some students do not participate actively in online synchronous tutorials, instead preferring passive participation.…

Inquiry-based learning (IBL) is a practice-oriented approach where students pose questions, conduct investigations, and interpret data to develop scientific knowledge and exploratory skills. Learning analytics (LA) holds great potential to capture these dynamic processes, which provides valuable insights to understand student inquiry behaviours…

Peer tutoring is a practice often used in higher education settings to create an extended learning environment for students, a space beyond the classroom and outside the teacher-student dynamic. Peer tutors are students who are "at a similar level of educational achievement as the students with whom they are working" (Sanford, 2021, p.…

This research examines the effect of critical reflection activities in an educational environment that uses active and blended learning experiences for students to develop confidence, motivation, and engagement with their learning. A mixed-methods research approach was adopted on a sample of 137 Communications and Media students, who were involved…

Challenge: Courses like introductory calculus are described as "gatekeeper" classes but are required for students across a variety of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) majors. Real applications of mathematics subjects are known to have a positive effect on student motivation and retention. Considering the broad and…

Educators, including library professionals are fortunate to have access to multiple educational Apps, virtual learning environments, and smartphones. However, during numerous Information Literacy sessions at Manchester Metropolitan University, the authors have continued to witness the value of paper-based activities. In this case study, we will…

Considering the pressing need for effective health education in primary schools, this systematic review rigorously evaluates various strategies designed to enhance students' health knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours. The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy, challenges, and outcomes of health education programmes that…

This study delves into the realm of student conceptual change, examining shifting understandings as important steppingstones on the path to sensemaking and canonical understanding in science education. It explores the potential of a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math) curriculum, aiming to provide equitable learning…

Background/purpose: The rapid advancement of technology, particularly in mobile learning, presents new opportunities for flexible, accessible education. In business education, especially marketing courses, integrating technology while cultivating essential 21st-century skills like critical thinking and collaboration remains challenging. This study…
